Well I'm not really good at helping out with pricing but my base beds are tan american santa barbaras. Single visits $7. 7 visits $35, 14 visits $55.

I'm not sure its a good idea to have a 3 visit package on your base beds. Maybe just for the higher levels?

Also I am wondering about upgrades for each level.. Just Tans would you suggest selling a single then a 5 or 6 pack rather then 3 to keep them coming in? Thanks for the help..

I would suggest a pack of 5 or 6. If they only want to go 3 times they can pay for the single visits, if they want to save money, they can buy more.

Your 6 tan package is only $9 more than what 3 tans would be. If they said "well I only want to tan 3 times" say

"that will be $21 or, for only $9 more, you can get twice the tans"

Then they are locked in for at least 6 visits and they will see results. Alot of people won't see results in 3 sessions and then they'll get pissed and go somwhere else cuz they don't know any better. At least thats my opinion.

As for upgrades, I don't have much for upgrades so someone else will have to help you with that one.

I have switched from 3,5,8 and 12 to 5,10 and 20 only in each level, much easier. For upgrades go off single session difference in price.

We do 5/10/20 here too. Of course we have single "walk-in" rates to establish value.

What is the usual break on 5 & 10 session packages for each level? Also, when do your sessions expire?
Does anyone offer 1 wk unl or a pay as you go membership along with these packages?

On PAG, do you treat it like an EFT? Charge card on a certain date every month or rely on the customer to come in monthly and pay the $19/$20. Might want to try this.

I would set it up as a monthly plan, 3/6 mos & 1 yr options. When that pkg expires they have to renew. No EFT option w/ this plan.

Any help on the 5 & 10 sessions prices & expiration dates?
